ASTRODaija
Lunar Chit Chat
Greetings - Wednesday - November 4th., 2009
I am available today until 4pm., pacific ONLY. No late evening hours.
We carry over today, from yesterday, with an
emotionally open, yet cleverly chatty sensitive & temperamental
Gemini Moon. Whatever you want to 'say' to someone is relatively easy
during this period, yet those of you with a 'Gemini Moon' or 'Sun' for
that matter could find yourselves feeling a tad bit taken advantage of
or just simply out of sorts, right now. For everyone, make sure that
you practice the Golden Rule in all your communications. The Golden
Rule is to treat others, in actions, words and deeds, the way you'd
also desire to be treated.
Today I am going to touch on a few very important astrological terms,
in all areas of interest associated with a particular discipline or
industry it's important to at least understand some of the lingo or
terminology, and in astrology it's vital to understand that your
Astrological 'Sign' is insignificant to the planetary influences
taking place, i.e., the ebb & flow, and how the energy of each
planet is affected 'each by the other', commonly called 'aspects'.
An important part of understanding astrology is to be aware of how the
planets interact. The planets form various angular relationships to each other,
called aspects. Imagine an aspect as the blending of the influences or energy of two planets.
The sextile,
, 60°, is a favorable aspect, the planets usually
being in congenial signs of compatible elements. This aspect can allow the influences of
the planets to work in harmony. The sextile only brings opportunity. These
opportunities must be acted upon to be of use.
The square,
,
90°, is traditionally regarded as unfavorable. It represents the
struggle of two forces at cross-purposes. The square brings stress,
denoting obstacles which can inspire growth through active &
concentrated effort.
The trine,
, 120°, is the most harmonious aspect. In most cases, it
joins planets in congenial signs of the same element. This energy is easy.
Consider it a gift. The drawback is the lack of challenge -- getting benefits without effort.
The opposition,
, 180°, (or
,
the Lunar Eclipse), when planets are exactly opposite each other in the
zodiac, denotes stress and awareness. This polarity, though tense, is
not necessarily discordant, as these opposites are complementary.
The conjunction,
, (or
, for a Solar Eclipse or Lunar occultation), is when two
planets are in the same degree of longitude (or within orb). This aspect gives strength to
the energies of the interacting planets. This aspect is either harmonious or
discordant depending upon the nature of the planets involved. Conjunctions with Mars or
Saturn, and sometimes with Uranus or Neptune, can be considered difficult, or challenging, especially conjunctions
between these planets. More can be determined about the nature of a particular conjunction
by comparing the nature of the sign in which it occurs to the natures of the planets
involved. A planet strongly compatible to the sign of conjunction can dominate the
energies of the other planet.~
Call me and together let's look at your chart for the upcoming holiday season.
Enjoy your 'hump day' have fun!!
Blessings and love,
